Dock bar doesn't disappear

hi
i am new to leopard
when i switch to fullscreen movies or slideshow, the dock contents disappear but the dock bar doesn't disappear. also, it looks like there are two dock bar one above the other. one is a bit longer than other. how do i fix this problem? help!

On the dock there is the option to "Turn Hiding On", it is on the divider toward the right end, maybe right click on the dotted line and select the option. Hope that it solves your problem.

  • HT5548 I pulled my launchpad from the dock bar to the main screen and a little puff of clouds appeared and it disappeared ?? I am now trying to find it, where did it go and how do I get it back?

    I pulled my launchpad icon formt he dock bar to the main screen and a little pop sound and a little puff of smoke appeared on the screedn and it dissappeared.  I want to bring back the launchpad to the dock bar.  Where did it go and how do I get it back on my screen?

    1. It's gone. Shortcuts like it disappear without confirmation when dragged out.
    2. Choose Applications from the Finder's Go menu and drag it back.

  • My menu and dock bar disappear when using safari

    For some reason when I use safari both my menu and dock bar disappear!?! Is this a new update and if not (or if so) can I get them both back while browsing the web? Also both menu bars will reappear when I scroll over them and I am able to "turn off hiding" on the dock bar; however, the dock bar disappears again once I switch to another program (pages, etc.). Then I have to go back and turn off hiding again. I can't get the menu bar to stick around at all. Please help!

    This has happened to me before and it took me a long time to work it out.
    But all you need to do is froce quit safari or any application that this is happening to and start the application again.
    Hope it works.

  • Disappearing Tool Bar and Docking Bars

    While using Mail, my toolbar slides away, as does my docking bar.  I can't seem to find anything in Preferences to correct this.  Help!
    Thanks.

    Application is in Full Screen mode.
    When an Application is in Full Screen mode, Menu bar, Toolbar and Dock will be hidden.
    Move the cursor to the top and click the blue double arrow icon to get back to the normal window mode
    or press esc key at the top left corner of the keyboard.
    Clicking the gray double arrow icon at the top right corner of the window will make window Full Screen.

  • If i neglect to create a mobile account when first signing in, finder bar doesn't display

    I have a fairly large office environment with hundreds of Macs that are connected to our Active Directory managed domain.  Sometimes a new user will try to log in to a machine for the first time but if they neglect to create a mobile account, the finder bar doesn't display properly at the top of the desktop.  It will appear briefly when something is clicked on the dock but will disappear again as soon as the desktop or anything else is clicked.  It doesn't even appear when Finder is clicked on the dock.  What's more, when mobile account isn't created, the user account doesn't appear in System Preferences> Users & Groups so a mobile account can't be created after the fact, nor can the user account be deleted in order to start from scratch.  This will happen regardless of the OS version, between 10.6 and 10.9. The only solution I've found is a complete rebuild of the OS on the computer in question which I can't do every time someone doesn't know to choose creation of a mobile account.
    Has anyone else run into this?  And if so, what solutions have you found?
    Thanks.

    Hi Russ!
    Apparently you already configured your account but you don't have nor the key or the password. You can get the password in the [https://account.services.mozilla.com/forgot following link] but you would need the Sync Key to sync your device to the rest of your devices.
    If you don't have the Sync Key the best thing you can do is to reset it, by deleting the previous account and creating a new one with the same user. You can perform this tasks from your [https://account.services.mozilla.com/ account dashboard].

  • Itunes 10.1.2.17 upgrade killed my sound, music scroll bar doesn't move

    After upgrading to 10.1.2.17 on 1/30/2011 all sound ceased on my system. Updated the sound card driver to no avail. No conflict in compatability mode. When song selected in iTunes, the play bar doesn't move nor do movies have audio in quicktime. There is no sound in any program.
    Thoughts?

    Katrina, Thank you for your reply. I followed the directions from your link about using msconfig, and did what it said. Upon started I loaded iTunes without Bonjour running and playing songs worked fine. No delay and going from track to track was quick. So then I quit iTunes and started Bonjour like it said and it still ran fine. So it must be something I deselected in msconfig. I'll have to go back and look.
    There were 3 temp files before, but I did another fresh install of iTunes and now it has only one temp file. Called Temp File.tmp. Oh I just looked now and it has another one, oops it just disappeared again. The time stamp on it for it's Modified date is Sunday February 13, 2011 5:28pm and it's Accessed time is Yesterday, February 28, 2001 11:25am, and it's Created time is Yesterday February 28, 2011 11:25am.
    I use Microsoft Security Essentials for my antivirus and under it's ignore files I told it to ignore the temp file as well as the itunes library files. But was still having trouble after doing that. Using my Apple TV 2, music still played fast also without any delay. I have a fairly large library though. 140GB or so of Music, 80Gb of Movies and 10GB of Podcasts. So I thought maybe since I've been adding more Movies it caused iTunes to slow down.
    I'll try rebooting now by adding Apple Mobile Device to startup and see if anything changes since it's still stopped. iPod Service is running as well as bonjour and all is ok.
    Since when I did a fresh intall of windows all I did was install iTunes, so the only other startup things I have are 3 from Intel called common user interface, my microsoft security client and Keepass my password program. Only quick time and itunes are enabled in startup right now. So I will go back and add each of those things and see which one is causing the problem. Thanks again.

  • I've just updated my Itunes to the newest update (iso7 I think) and now my itunes won't even open. It just jumps 2-3 times on my dock then doesn't open. I have no idea what to do , please help!

    Open Finder. Go to the "Go" menu in the menu bar. Press and hold Control and click on Library. Go to "Preferences". Find a file named, "com.apple.iTunes.plist" and delete that file. This won't delete your iTunes content. It will reset iTunes. Try it again.

    [IMG]http://i32.tinypic.com/2qkmc6e.png[/IMG]

    Hey there, I'm new to the discussion board. And my apologies for sounding computer illiterate. I just installed Leopard on my PowerBook G4 and I have started having problems with my dock. The auto hide and show dock preference doesn't work and when I scroll over the icons the names don't pop up and nothing gets highlighted. Same thing goes for scrolling over my menu bar and over my bookmarks on the bookmark bar. Just looking for some help, please. I've tried all sorts of things, including the "killall Dock" command in the Terminal. But to no avail.
    Any ideas?

  • When I installed Yosemite when I open safari my dock at the bottom disappears how do I get it back

    when I installed Yosemite when I open safari my dock at the bottom disappears how do I get it back?

    Use View -> Status bar ; and click on it so the tick/check mark appears.
    Note in the next version firefox 4 the status bar is being replaced see [[What happened to the Status Bar?]], and if you want something similar you will then need to use an add-on.

  • Search Bar doesn't work in normal itunes but works in safe mode

    I am not sure if anyone else is having this problem but with Itunes 11.0.4 The Search bar doesn't work no matter what you type any result you get you click on it nothing happens. I recently went into Itunes Safe mode and the Search bar works fine. I really hope Itunes fixes this with the next update.
    Is anyone else having this problem?

    I've found a solution!
    Uncheck the "search entire library" option in the search bar then check it again.

  • I downloaded the new Firefox but it constantly freezes, doing absolutely nothing, and I can't even close it from my Mac dock bar, I have to turn off my laptop using the power button as Firefox won't let me shut down. What can I do?

    Hi
    I recently downloaded the new Firefox (Firefox 4, I think - you can tell I'm very tech savvy!) and it constantly freezes, I can't do anything with it at all - I can't even close it from the icon in my Mac dock bar.
    I have tried restarting my computer - though I have to turn it off by using the power button as as Firefox is open and totally unresponsive it won't let me shut down. About a minute after re-starting Firefox, restoring my tabs or starting afresh, it freezes again.
    This is obviously very annoying and I'm not sure what I can do about it. Firefox is my preferred browser, and I'd really like to be able to use it again!

    This is not a reply. I just want to elaborate on this problem.
    My computer freezes occasionally when it is used after being sleep for a while. The spinning ball appears and everything is totally disabled. Nothing on the keyboard works.
    The mouse moves, but does not work.
    The only solution is to turn the power off and on (losing all data in open applications.)
    I kept the System monitor running on the side to find out which program was running when the computer froze. The Monitor as well as all other applications froze, but the data showed:
    Firefox 18.4%
    Activity Monitor 0.9%
    Firefox Plugin 0.2%
    This is all the information I have. By the way, I am using iMac with OS 10.6.

  • Questions on my dock bar

    On several of my program icons like microsoft powerpoint and entourage there is a question mark that appears when I click on it, I can't do anything with the application because that is all that happens.  It also happens on a open file from micosoft project gallery sitting on my dock (the file is stuck open my dock since the question mark on the icon first appeared)  It is the first one I noticed.  Do you know what to do to get my icons back to normal?

    Also I lost two programs from my dock bar and spoke to you guys but still was unable to find them but I found a file OFfice recovery 2008 which I thought might help me (the lost programs were microsoft 2008 word and microsoft 2008 excel) but the fille office recovery 2008 somehow got sent to the trash and now I don't know how to get it out and see what it is.  Do you know if it might be able to help me and also if you could direct me on how to get it out of the trash that would be great.  I also have another application downloaded form the internet that I can't shut on my dock bar.  Help would be great.  Thank you.
